Abstract:
Housing data are of a nested nature as houses are nested in a village, a town, or a county. This study thus applies HLM (hierarchical linear modelling) in an empirical study by adding neighborhood characteristic variables into the model for consideration. Using the housing data of 31 neighborhoods in the Taipei area as analysis samples and three HLM sub-models, this study discusses the impact of neighborhood characteristics on house prices. The empirical results indicate that the impact of various neighborhood characteristics on average housing prices is different and that the impact of house characteristics on house prices is also moderated by neighborhood characteristics.

Abstract:
House prices tend to be spatially correlated due to similar physical features shared by neighboring houses and commonalities attributable to their neighborhood environment. A multilevel model is one of the methodologies that has been frequently adopted to address spatial effects in modeling house prices. Empirical studies show its capability in accounting for neighborhood specific spatial autocorrelation (SA) and analyzing potential factors related to house prices at both individual and neighborhood levels. However, a standard multilevel model specification only considers within-neighborhood SA, which refers to similar house prices within a given neighborhood, but neglects between-neighborhood SA, which refers to similar house prices for adjacent neighborhoods that can commonly exist in residential areas. This oversight may lead to unreliable inference results for covariates, and subsequently less accurate house price predictions. This study proposes to extend a multilevel model using Moran eigenvector spatial filtering (MESF) methodology. This proposed model can take into account simultaneously between-neighborhood SA with a set of Moran eigenvectors as well as potential within-neighborhood SA with a random effects term. An empirical analysis of 2016 and 2017 house prices in Fairfax County, Virginia, illustrates the capability of a multilevel MESF model specification in accounting for between-neighborhood SA present in data. A comparison of its model performance and house price prediction outcomes with conventional methodologies also indicates that the multilevel MESF model outperforms standard multilevel and hedonic models. With its simple and flexible feature, a multilevel MESF model can furnish an appealing and useful approach for understanding the underlying spatial distribution of house prices.

Abstract:
Both interpretive and positivist research were a daily part of early work by social workers in settlement houses of the US Social Workers from 1902 to 1922 at Greenwich House, a settlement house (neighborhood center) founded on the west side of Greenwich Village, New York City in 1902, involved themselves in diverse investigative methods. As this analysis reveals, Greenwich House workers pursued case studies of families, residential blocks, neighborhoods, and workplaces; ethnographic depictions of an alley and a garment workers’ strike; participant-observation of tenement households, small businesses, street life, and urban factories; and social surveys on the sanitary conditions and degree of housing congestion in the neighborhoods surrounding Greenwich House.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper studies whether house prices reflect belief differences about climate change. We show that in an equilibrium model of housing choice in which agents derive utility from ownership in a neighborhood of similar agents, prices exhibit different elasticities to climate risk. We use comprehensive transaction data to relate prices to inundation projections of individual homes and measures of beliefs about climate change. We find that houses projected to be underwater in believer neighborhoods sell at a discount compared to houses in denier neighborhoods. Our results suggest that house prices reflect heterogeneity in beliefs about long-run climate change risks.

Abstract:
This study applied Salama's (2006, 2007) framework for affordable housing research and compared house and neighborhood satisfaction and future house aspirations of low income residents' who are dwelling in two different types of affordable houses; social houses and gecekondus in Izmir, Turkey. The study applied survey technique and 54 residents (27 in social housing area and 27 in gecekondu area) were interviewed. The results showed that residents' family characteristics were different on some issues (education, employment, household size) and similar on others (homeownership, income, duration of residence, and life style). Physical conditions were poor in both areas, but were far worse in gecekondus. Residents' evaluations of the current house and the neighborhood confirmed this argument. Despite such differences in physical conditions, when residents' general satisfaction with the house and the neighborhood was compared, residents of the two areas gave similar positive responses. In fact, majority of both residents reported that the house and the neighborhood had a positive effect on their life. Moreover, both residents' aspirations for future house were similar and limited in two areas. The applied value of these results and areas for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
Along with developments, times, digital technology is growing and all activities will be carried out online because it is considered more practical and fast, and saves time. A neighborhood association is a community organization consisting of several residents and heads of households who have family cards (KK) that are domiciled in the neighborhood (RT) in one environment. Activities in the neighborhood include taking care of the boarding house domicile (stay report), making an electronic letter of identity card to the neighborhood residents (RW), making a domicile letter and providing information to residents, making a death certificate, moving a house. Sometimes the activities in the neighborhood also require quite a long time and the process is less efficient. For this purpose, an e-government-based website was designed for the neighborhood of the neighborhood called the electronic neighborhood association (RT). Neighborhood association electronics (E-Rt) is a website that is intended for residents in the community, namely to access activities in neighborhood neighborhoods.

Abstract:
Neighborhoods are an important source of inequality, and neighborhood change may lead to changing opportunities for residents. Past research on neighborhood upgrading tends to focus on one process: gentrification. I argue that a broader range of types of neighborhood socioeconomic ascent requires examination. This article documents the different types of neighborhoods ascending from 1970 to the present. Using principal components analysis and cluster analysis, I report the prevalence of socioeconomic ascent, based on increases in neighborhood income, rents, house values, and educational and occupational attainment, among five to seven types of neighborhoods in each decade. I also examine population and housing changes that co–occur with ascent to identify processes of ascent beyond gentrification. Overall, findings suggest mixed implications for neighborhood inequality. While white suburban neighborhoods make up the bulk of neighborhoods that ascend in each decade, minority and immigrant neighborhoods become increasingly likely to ascend over time, though displacement may occur.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives To empirically test whether offenders consider environmental features at multiple spatial scales when selecting a target and examine the simultaneous effect of neighborhood-level and residence-level attributes on residential burglars’ choice of residence to burglarize. Methods We combine data on 679 burglaries by 577 burglars committed between 2005 and 2014 with data on approximately 138,000 residences in 193 residential neighborhoods in Ghent, Belgium. Using a discrete spatial choice approach, we estimate the combined effect of neighborhood-level and residence-level attributes on burglars’ target choice in a conditional logit model. Results Burglars prefer burglarizing residences in neighborhoods with lower residential density. Burglars also favor burglarizing detached residences, residences in single-unit buildings, and renter-occupied residences. Furthermore, burglars are more likely to target residences in neighborhoods that they previously and recently targeted for burglary, and residences nearby their home. We find significant cross-level interactions between neighborhood and residence attributes in burglary target selection. Conclusions Both area-level and target-level attributes are found to affect burglars’ target choices. Our results offer support for theoretical accounts of burglary target selection that characterize it as being informed both by attributes of individual properties and attributes of the environment as well as combinations thereof. This spatial decision-making model implies that environmental information at multiple and increasingly finer scales of spatial resolution informs crime site selection.

Abstract:
Previous studies on housing vacancy mostly focused on variables representing regional characteristics while overlooking the characteristics of individual houses. This is due to the limitations of available data. Using the house-level Housing Vacancy Database, this study aims to identify the spatial clustering pattern of vacant houses by examining single-family houses in Daegu, South Korea, and analyze the factors affecting housing vacancy. The Housing Vacancy Database built in this study provides accurate location information of vacant houses, making it possible to analyze the clustering pattern of vacant houses in a more detailed spatial unit. Furthermore, the Housing Vacancy Database considered various physical and neighborhood factors at the house level. The result of hot spot analysis showed that vacant houses were spatially concentrated in the city center. As a result of analyzing the factors affecting housing vacancy at the house level and neighborhood level using a multilevel model, it was found that the physical environment characteristics of individual houses were key factors affecting housing vacancy. Additionally, the probability of housing vacancy tended to increase when the land prices were higher, the houses were located in redevelopment zones, and there were more neighboring vacant houses nearby. Meanwhile, population decline and the ratio of old houses were the only significant variables at the neighborhood level. Thus, this study addresses that policies are needed to improve housing and physical environment characteristics that contribute to housing vacancy.

Lisboa é uma cidade de bairros. Os mais típicos e populares, os bairros históricos, têm o privilégio de representar a história, cultura e génese da cidade. Este tipo de edificado revela-se uma presença expressiva na malha urbana de Lisboa e lá encontramos um modo de vida específico, sustentado pela densidade de ligações humanas e por fortes relações de interconhecimento e vizinhança, cuja alusão a cidade-aldeia carrega uma certa nostalgia. Contudo, a alteração da estrutura familiar e as recentes pressões sobre a habitação, turismo e quotidianos conduziram este tipo de edificado e modos de vida dos seus habitantes para uma situação de vertigem. Casa, Bairro e Transição pretende refletir sobre a reabilitação e requalificação das tipologias habitacionais do bairro histórico da Madragoa, cuja precariedade votou o bairro e o seu património edificado, até aos anos recentes, a um certo abandono e negligência, e ainda sobre as relações e apropriações que os seus habitantes estabelecem e protagonizam nos espaços coletivos. Acreditamos que a valorização deste tipo de edificado e a reflexão sobre os valores patrimoniais, materiais e representativos da identidade podem garantir a reintegração funcional e a diversidade sociocultural nestes tecidos, promovendo não só a valorização deste património, mas também como a sustentabilidade cultural, social e económica do lugar, reconhecendo outros modos de habitar e viver na cidade.
ABSTRACT: Lisbon is a city of neighborhoods. The most typical and popular have the privilege of representing the history, culture and genesis of the city. This type of buildings are an expressive presence in the urban network of Lisbon. In there we can find a specific way of life, sustained by the density of human connections and by strong relations of inter-knowledge and neighborhood, whose allusion to the village-town carry a certain nostalgia. However, changes in the family structure and recent pressures on housing, tourism and everyday life have led this type of buildings and livelihoods of its inhabitants to a vertigo situation. Casa, Bairro e Transição intends to reflect on the rehabilitation and requalification of the housing typologies of Madragoas historic neighborhood, whose precarious housing conditions have vindicated the neighborhood and its built heritage, until recent years, to a certain abandonment and negligence, and also about the relations and appropriations that its inhabitants establish and carry out in collective spaces. We believe that the valuation of this type of building and the reflection on heritage, material and identity values can guarantee the functional reintegration and socio-cultural diversity in these urban areas, promoting not only its heritage but also the cultural, social and economical sustainability of Madragoa, recognizing other ways of inhabiting and living within the city.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the work of reformer Lugenia Burns Hope and her community organization, the Neighborhood Union, as a case study to unpack scholarly characterizations of black elite uplift strategies during the early 20th century. The Neighborhood Union was established in 1908 in Atlanta by Hope and women from the community to build stronger neighborhoods and to combat the deleterious effects of the 1906 Race Riots and Jim Crow laws. Neighborhood Union settlement houses provided basic and extracurricular services, including kindergartens for working mothers, vocational classes, and lecture series. The organization’s exceptional, multi-class leadership structure enabled members of the black poor and working classes to lead their own projects with the assistance of Neighborhood Union resources. Hope’s background provides evidence against broad generalizations of the black elite as paternalistic, and her vision of creating democratic communities that diminished class barriers provides a counter narrative to characterizations of clubwomen and the black elite as engaging in respectability politics in their social work. Understood within its historical and sociopolitical context, Hope’s life and work also challenge mainstream narratives of the Progressive Era and the Social Gospel movement.

Perante o contexto de deterioração e desqualificação que muitos bairros atravessam, carregando em si a memória e a história de um desenvolvimento urbano e cultural, procurou-se dar uma resposta para a sua valorização e dinamização, objetando ao seu abandono. Focámos o estudo nas necessidades habitacionais, com as respetivas mudanças ao longo do tempo, com uma perspetiva de atenuar os custos e de uma adaptação a novas funcionalidades. O bairro Marechal Carmona, em Cascais, permitiu uma reflexão sobre o estado atual desta zona da cidade e da necessidade de repensar a sua essência e a sua adaptação aos novos tempos. Vivemos numa realidade em que a transformação das sociedades e a problemática da habitação são constantes, estas temáticas são o mote para o desenvolvimento do projeto. Esta instabilidade e incerteza, provoca uma necessidade de adequação dos processos e das respostas habitacionais visto que os meios não parecem ser suficientes na resposta à complexidade das situações que emergem. Aproveitando o momento em que a requalificação urbana ganha uma expressão nas estratégias de intervenção urbanas, desenham-se novas formas de habitar a casa segundo um conjunto de hipóteses diversas, com uma maior adaptação às diferentes exigências que se fazem sentir na sociedade contemporânea. Faz-se uma aproximação à arquitetura através do desenho mais aprofundado da habitação e demonstrase como se poderá (Re)Habilitar o Bairro Marechal-Carmona, trazendo a este lugar novos usos e vivências.
ABSTRACT: Faced with the context of deterioration and disqualification that many neighborhoods go through, bearing in mind the memory and history of an urban and cultural development, an answer was required for its valorization and dynamization, aiming at its abandonment. We focused the study on housing needs, with changes over time, with a view to reduce costs and adapting to new features. The Marechal Carmona neighborhood in Cascais allowed a reflection on the current state of this area of the city and the need to rethink its essence and its adaptation to the new times. We live in a reality where the transformation of societies and the housing problem are constant, these themes are the motto for the development of the project. This instability and uncertainty cause a need to adapt housing processes and responses, since the means do not seem to be sufficient to respond to the complexity of the situations that emerge. Taking advantage of the moment in which urban requalification gains expression in urban intervention strategies, new ways of making use of the house are designed according to a set of different hypotheses, with a greater adaptation to the different demands that are felt in contemporary society. An approach to architecture is made through the deeper design of housing and shows how one can (re)enable the Marechal Carmona neighborhood, bringing to this place new features and experiences.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the United States, gentrification typically involves whites displacing African American, working-class communities. This work uses a political economy framework to better understand the clues displacement leaves behind. Specifically, this research investigates what happened to a former community in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, known as Silver Hill, which was an enclave of mostly African American residents founded in the late nineteenth century just west of the city. Through archival research and investigation of the remaining traces of the neighborhood, we develop a theory of spatial erasure that highlights how wealthy white communities that grew up around Silver Hill subsumed and eradicated it. Specifically, racial capitalism played a major role in the abuse and neglect of Silver Hill. The neighborhood became surrounded by wealthy white developments which cut off road access to their homes. Today, a cemetery, two houses, and a litany of historical records offer clues about what was once a thriving African American community. Additionally, descendants of the neighborhood’s residents provide key information about its life and death. We discuss the implications of examining this history, especially as it pertains to the collective remembrance of Silver Hill.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper will consider two levels within the study of the Cuban revolution: the meta-narratives of change and continuity that determine the academic literature on Cuba and inform political positioning in relation to the revolution, and the methodological challenges in understanding how people in Cuba experience change and continuity in their daily life. Transformation and continuity have been the two dominant analytical tropes used to interpret Cuban social and political life since the overthrow of the Batista regime in 1959. For Cuban scholars and politicians, a focus on change in reference to what was Cuba’s reality before the Revolution is a continuous concern and a powerful discursive mechanism in redefining and reinvigorating the revolutionary project. Simultaneously, in periods of crisis throughout the 62 years since the revolution, the capacity to demonstrate continuity with revolutionary principles while developing new mechanisms to redefine the political project has ensured the revolution’s subsistence. Conversely, continuity and change are also harnessed by critics of Cuba’s current regime to articulate the ever-imminent collapse of socialism in the region. Change has been their main focus of concern during critical historic moments that affected the trajectory of the Cuban revolutionary project. From this perspective, change embodies a promise of progress and implies a movement toward liberal democracy and a pro-US foreign policy, while continuity denotes failure, stagnation, and repression. At the core of the analysis of change in Cuba lies a concern with the nature of the state. Ethnographic data reveals the partialities and contradictions people experience in their daily life and across time. Two elements of ethnographic experience are particularly informative: life histories that span across the revolutionary period, and generational conflicts surrounding political issues. I will focus on the life history of key informants and the generational conflicts that surround their experience, a well as their material contexts (their neighborhood, their house, their job), all of which help to elucidate the complexities of studying change within a permanent revolution.

Abstract:
AbstractMexico City is known as one of the largest cities in the world and thought by many to be one of the most unequal. Not surprisingly, it has received more attention than other Mexican urban areas. However, the city’s internal social organization is often misunderstood. Mexico City stands out as a city where segregation is relatively low, and levels of inequality are actually lower than perceptions. Moreover, between 1990 and 2010, both segregation and inequality have declined. This chapter examines these changes. We report on changes in occupational structure and patterns of segregation by educational level. Educational level is different from income or occupation, but these three dimensions of socioeconomic conditions are closely linked. While the overall level of segregation between educational groups in the city has slightly decreased, residential patterns of educational groups have changed significantly. The number of neighborhoods with high concentrations of highly educated people increased significantly and expanded geographically. At the same time, the prevalence of neighborhoods with residents with low and middle educational attainment has diminished and neighborhoods that house people of all educational categories or high and middle categories are more numerous. This chapter illustrates the complexity of segregation patterns in such a large metropolitan area, as well as the challenges of determining why patterns have changed.

Abstract:
This project was commissioned to mark the grand opening of a new arts center and gallery, housed within a renovated fire station in the eastern market neighborhood of Detroit. The existing building which housed the gallery was largely preserved intact, with little modification to its rough walls and exposed concrete floors. As a result, the pavilion was conceived of as a freestanding structure which not only created a type of space which was diverse from its surroundings, but also created a new type of surface for displaying art, one that blurred the boundary between the art and architecture itself.

Abstract:
In 2019 a small, single-family house was sold to a family excited to be part of a trailblazing and strangely controversial project. While many net zero energy (NZE) and/or Passive House examples have now been completed across the US, small communities, especially in the flyover country of the upper Midwest, have proudly doubled down against the “unknown” of these new models, reinforcing traditional project delivery and the absence of energy codes. This project and initiative not only serves as an example for students and evolving pedagogy, but also has become a touchstone in the community, challenging the preconceptions of modern design, neighborhood investment, homebuilding practice, and the public image of a university grappling with an evolving “design culture.” The complexities of any architectural project are numerous but often predictable. Like any student design-build project, this house dealt with its share of delays and changes. And like any grant-funded project, it dealt with additional oversight, reviews and red tape. Now in its final phase, the project begins post-occupancy monitoring. Teaching the homeowners about building performance blends the pragmatics of understanding equipment with the global responsibility and mission of NZE and passive house. An early decision to work within an existing, walkable neighborhood lead unexpectedly to a very public debate on neighborhood design. These and other lessons are a reminder that architectural practice requires teaching your client, and often, your community. This paper will focus on the larger impact that the house continues to have on both the community and university. This includes the cultural challenges of meeting design expectations, the potential of infill as a community revitalization tool, and convincing a skeptical public that energy consciousness and evolving construction techniques have real value. It will also discuss how these issues, understood and accepted as given within the design and academic community, are still radically new in this (and many) regions across the country. A discussion of pedagogy and community design are balanced with quantitative energy data, impact, and continuing observation.

Abstract:
Using the constant temperature of the earth Afterhouse is a new urban typology that transforms the concrete foundation of a derelict house into passive solar subterranean greenhouses allowing crops to be extended and moderated in temperate climates. By using readily available materials and techniques while maintaining the scale of the neighborhood, Afterhouse empowers a community to transform a blighted home into productive spaces for growing and celebrating food during the winter.

Abstract:
An accurate short-term electric load forecasting is critical for modern electric power systems' safe and economical operation. Electric load forecasting can be formulated as a multi-variate time series problem. Residential houses in the same neighborhood may be affected by similar factors and share some latent spatial dependencies. However, most of the existing works on electric load forecasting fail to explore such dependencies. In recent years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have shown impressive success in modeling such dependencies. However, such GNN based models usually would require a large amount of training data. We may have a minimal amount of data available to train a reliable forecasting model for houses in a new neighborhood area. At the same time, we may have a large amount of historical data collected from other houses that can be leveraged to improve the new neighborhood's prediction performance. In this paper, we propose an attentive transfer learning-based GNN model that can utilize the learned prior knowledge to improve the learning process in a new area. The transfer process is achieved by an attention network, which generically avoids negative transfer by leveraging knowledge from multiple sources. Extensive experiments have been conducted on real-world data sets. Results have shown that the proposed framework can consistently outperform baseline models in different areas.

Abstract:
Building America (BA) partner McStain Neighborhoods built the Discovery House in Loveland, Colorado, with an extensive package of energy-efficient features, including a high-performance envelope, efficient mechanical systems, a solar water heater integrated with the space-heating system, a heat-recovery ventilator (HRV), and ENERGY STAR™ appliances. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Building Science Consortium (BSC) conducted short-term field-testing and building energy simulations to evaluate the performance of the house. These evaluations are utilized by BA to improve future prototype designs and to identify critical research needs. The Discovery House building envelope and ducts were very tight under normal operating conditions. The HRV provided fresh air at a rate of about 75 cfm (35 l/s), consistent with the recommendations of ASHRAE Standard 62.2. The solar hot water system is expected to meet the bulk of the domestic hot water (DHW) load (>83%), but only about 12% of the space-heating load. DOE-2.2 simulations predict whole-house source energy savings of 54% compared to the BA Benchmark [1]. The largest contributors to energy savings beyond McStain’s standard practice are the solar water heater, HRV, improved air distribution, high-efficiency boiler, and compact fluorescent lighting package.

Abstract:
Beyond being a form of community expression, the traditional Bukharian houses and mahallas – neighborhoods - illustrate a close relationship with the environment as the use of earthen materials and the design of its urban fabric respond to the harsh desert climate. This World Heritage listed vernacular architecture and mahallas in Uzbekistan are a vulnerable and rapidly changing heritage. Traditional techniques and know-how are getting lost and replaced by new construction techniques that most of the time are causing irreversible changes. In addition, their special attributes that make them unique are also disappearing due to changes of ownership, alterations, and adaptive reuse. In this context, a fragment of this heritage, the Traditional Bukharian Jewish Houses, was identified and included on the 2020 World Monuments Watch program to advocate for their preservation while maintaining the diversity and livelihood of the communities. Since the Watch inclusion, the World Monuments Fund (WMF) and International Institute for Central Asian Studies (IICAS), in partnership with the Bukhara State University and other local partners, have been working on the Documentation and Conservation project. The team assembled for this project is carrying out an updated inventory of the three Jewish mahallas using digital technologies and documenting and assessing the physical conditions of the houses. Ultimately, the project seeks to create best practice conservation guidelines not only for the Jewish houses, but also for all the traditional Bukharian houses that will foster community awareness of traditional construction techniques. This paper presents the process, challenges, and preliminary results of the project contributing to the protection of this outstanding Bukharian vernacular and shared heritage.

Full text
Abstract:
The story of post-industrial urban decline in America is well known. Bustling cities fall victim to changing economic structures and globalization. Wealth moves out of city centers, leaving behind evacuated buildings and vacant lots where houses once stood and transforming vibrant neighborhoods into sparsely populated areas that lack the density necessary to sustain urban life. Municipalities deem abandoned buildings “blight” and assemble task forces to eradicate them. In response to this pressing urban reality, we have been developing a speculative approach to reusing buildings and materials called “reassembly.” Reassembly views a building’s materiality as a matter-of-fact, as a resource for architecture stripped of the negative assumptions commonly associated with disused properties. Building components are taken apart, moved around, piled up, and mixed with new construction to create alternative uses and forms.
